With 30 million albums sold worldwide, 5 time Grammy winner Christina Aguilera released her eagerly anticipated new album ‘Bionic’ last week on RCA Records and it has debuted at the top of the UK charts!
This is the second time Christina has shot straight into no.1 on the UK album chart following 2006’s ‘Back To Basics’ which has gone on to sell over half a million copies.
Christina has spent much of the past year in the studio working on her 4th studio album. ‘Bionic’ features songs co-written by Christina Aguilera along with her much buzzed about collaborations including Sia, Tricky Stewart, Polow Da Don, Le Tigre, Hill & Switch, and Ladytron among others.
Christina says: “Working on this album with so many talented artists and producers that I admire was really an amazing experience. The artists I chose to work with added so many unique song layers to ‘Bionic’. My intention was to step into their world and what they do combined with my own vision and sound. The results were magic.”
The album also features the ballad ‘Lift Me Up’ produced and written by Linda Perry. The title ‘Bionic’ reflects Christina Aguilera’s ability to take her range to new levels and use her voice in various ways never heard before.
Christina describes the album as a unique mix of many genres and styles of music. “I was able to explore and create a fresh, sexy feel using both electronic and organic elements with subject matter ranging from playful to introspective. I am so excited for my fans to hear the new sound. It is something I don’t think anyone will expect.“
